Public Relations and Publicity
When a product is considered dangerous for use, such as a toy, the problem must be solved, or the product must be recalled and fixed
At amusement parks, if a ride malfunctions or a controversial group holds a convention in a park, the park management is quick to respond by using its PR department to address any negative situations.
Son of Beast @ Kings Island, Mason, OHSon of Beast was a record-breaking, wooden roller coaster located at Kings Island in Mason, Ohio. Built and designed by the now outdated Roller Coaster Corporation of America, it opened to the public on May 26, 2000, and was themed as a sequel to one of the park's other signature attractions, The Beast. In addition to breaking the world record for speed, Son of Beast was the first wooden hyper coaster in the world with a 214-foot (65 m) drop and was the only wooden coaster to feature a loop.
Son of Beast is also known for two major, non-fatal accidents. – In 2006, damage to the track caused one of the trains to stop abruptly. – Another setback occurred in 2009, when a woman claimed to have suffered a head injury.
The ride was closed indefinitely, and all references to the ride were later removed from the park. On July 27, 2012, the closure was made permanent, as Kings Island announced that the roller coaster would be dismantled and removed from the park.
Why do you think the son of Beast @ Kings Island in Mason, OH was closed and dismantled?
